Rick Ross "U.O.E.N.O." - On a guest verse on Atlanta rapper Rocko's mixtape track "U.O.E.N.O.," Rick Ross seems to glorify secretly drugging a woman and then having sex with her. “Put molly all in her champagne / She ain’t even know it / I took her home and I enjoyed that / She ain’t even know it,” he rapped.

TMZ's Lil Wayne Death Watch That Wasn't - TMZ wins the prize for biggest media fiasco of the still-young year with its reporting around Lil Wayne's health scare last month.

Beyoncé - 20 years after Milli Vanilli, and almost 10 years after Ashlee Simpson's Saturday Night Live performance, the world somehow acted surprised that Beyoncé may have lip-synced at the inauguration.

Rush Limbaugh's Beyoncé Rant - Rush Limbaugh, wrong about women and black music? Who'd have thought?
